Molecular mapping of chromosome 2 deletions in murine radiation-induced AML localizes a putative tumor suppressor gene to a 1.0 cM region homologous to human chromosome segment 11p11-12

Abstract excerpt

Radiation-induced acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) in the mouse are characterized by chromosome 2 deletions. Previous studies showed that a minimal deleted region (mdr) of approximately 6.5 cM is lost from one homologue in chromosome 2-deleted AMLs. An AML tumor suppressor gene is proposed to map within this mdr. In this study, we refine the mdr to a I cM interval between markers D2Mit126 and D2Mit185 by...
